Okay my 10 gallon tank just finish cycling!! :yahoo: I know exactly what fish I want.
  • Cherry barbs
  • Zebra Danios
  • Panda cories
Soo... How many of each can I get. I don't want my tank to be overstocked (10 gal.)
This is my very first tank and i'm trying to be a good pet owner. :angel:
 
I think danios need a bigger tank, I 'm not sure, but that's what I've heard.
 
Zebra Danios do stay fairly small but they are extremely active fish. I have a few in my 90g and they are constantly swimming all around, from side to side, top to bottom, everywhere. I don't think they would be too happy confined to a 10g. Cherry Barbs are probably OK. Panda Corys are too but they are fairly sensitive to water conditions so make sure you have a fully cycled tank before adding them and keep up your regular water changes. You could probably safely add 3-4 cherry barbs and 3-4 panda corys in your tank.
